Happy Holidays, dear readers! It’s that time of year once again where we here at Daily Dead celebrate the season of savings and celebrate all kinds of horror and sci-fi gift ideas out there that would make any genre geek happy to receive (or perhaps you’re just looking to spoil yourself, and there’s nothing wrong with that!).

Over the next few weeks, DD’s 2019 Holiday Gift Guide will bring you the lowdown on tons of deals and discounts that are being offered up by an array of retailers, as well as dedicated themed days where we’ll be celebrating some of our favorite gift ideas, including movies, books, artwork, apparel, collectibles, enamel pins, vinyl selections, and so much more.

For this first installment, here’s a look at some of the already announced Black Friday deals that horror fans should keep an eye out for, as well as a recap of all the movies and video games that will be on sale this Black Friday at Target, Walmart, and Best Buy (BB has some amazing deals you definitely do not want to miss out on).

We’ll be back early on Friday with the next edition of Daily Dead’s HGG, which will have more Black Friday deals for you to check out. In the meantime, get started on those Black Friday lists and have a great Thanksgiving everyone!

I hope all you artwork aficionados are ready, because Mondo is set to drop some awesomeness this Friday. This year, Mondo will be hosting their largest online flat file sale to date, with prime pickings from the last 10 years of their killer art. Be sure to head over to Mondo’s site on Friday, November 29th at 12:00pm CST and check out just what Mondo has dug up from their archives.

You can expect all kinds of deals from Fright-Rags for Black Friday, including discounts on hoodies, baseball tees, enamel pins, socks, and more. Plus, FR is also debuting nifty new lounge pants designs and their Home Alone collection, making this the perfect weekend to stock up on all the great Fright-Rags merchandise out there.

The annual Vinegar Syndrome Black Friday sale is easily one of the most anticipated events for media collectors every single year, and 2019 is shaping up to be yet another banner year for VS. Tammy and the T-Rex is coming home on both Blu-ray and 4K UHD, but VS has also put together The Angel Collection box set, they’re releasing more slipcovers, two surprise releases, and are marking down most of their merch by 50 percent, too. Horror fans, do not sleep on the Vinegar Syndrome Black Friday sale this year.

The fine fiends at Cavitycolors will once again be hosting their Cyber Hell sale, which begins on Thursday, November 28th at 5:00pm EST this year. Shoppers will get free shipping for the first 24 hours of the sale, and items will be marked down anywhere from 35 to 75 percent off, too. Just use the code CYBERHELL when checking out to save some money at Cavitycolors this Black Friday.

If you’re a fan of the Mixtape Massacre game like I am, you’ll definitely want to pick up their brand new booster pack—The Sleigher—which comes out just in time for the holiday season. MM is also releasing a limited edition Glitch Tee, which comes in both short and long sleeves. ’Tis the season, indeed!

If you’re in the market for some new artwork, or perhaps are looking for some killer art to give as a gift this holiday season, Hero Complex Gallery’s Holiday Sale is currently underway, where you can save 25 percent off everything in stock, and an additional 10 percent off HCG originals. Happy shopping!

Pixel Elixir has been killing it as of late with their badass designs that you can find on their enamel pins, apparel, prints, and more. PE will be hosting a Black Friday sale that begins on Friday at midnight—you don’t even need a code to do all your shopping, either. Just head over to Pixel Elixir and fill up that online cart!
